New direction

It's been seven months since I last posted here. I guess in a way it's kind of like my issues with keeping a journal. Good intentions don't always come through! But here I go again. I've been doing a sort of blog for my 1/2 marathon through Team in Training at this site: http://pages.teamintraining.org/sj/nikesf08/mlaird. It's been fun, and maybe I can keep it up by blogging here as well. I really would like to be able to follow through with this as I feel like it's something I need to do for my mental health. I'd like to be able to put thoughts and ideas out there as well as let people know what's happening in my life.

Bah, we'll see I guess!

Today I have the day off - through the weekend. My folks and my aunt are coming down to visit. They were supposed to be here today but I'm thinking they won't get here until tomorrow. At first I was a little unhappy because I felt as if I was wasting a vacation day but now I'm pretty happy. I'm going to go for a little run while it's still cool. Well, I'm going to actually do a sprint workout. Not so much a little run. Then I have errands galore to run. Aaron's birthday is tomorrow and he loves days when he gets presents. I need to finish shopping for him and get some other things out of the way.

Here's to trying to keep a blog going, posting photos and mental health. Whee!
